Accounting for tilers — keep materials, waste and labour straight
Tilers spend hard on materials and van time. If you only watch bank balance, you will miss which jobs actually paid after adhesive, trims and returns. Pro Quoter is built by a tradesman for low-admin job records — quotes, invoices and money visibility next to the work, not buried in notebooks.
What to track every week
Materials receipts, mileage, blade and consumable spend, subcontract help on big pours, and waste disposal.
CIS if it applies
If customers deduct CIS, reconcile statements — do not discover errors at year-end.
VAT if registered
Materials and some expenses carry VAT — your accountant confirms what you reclaim.
Instead of spreadsheets alone
Pro Quoter keeps quotes, invoices and Financial Hub records closer to the job so categorisation is honest.
